4 years ago today
That’s when I began slaying the beast in this progressive new way of life.
I’ve been through a lot over these past 4 years but by seeking help, doing the next right thing and staying sober I have overcome doubt, fear, negativity, Berevement, anxiety, separation mediation. Won the right to almost equal parent my daughter ( 5now)
moved home by myself after getting a deal sorted with my abusive ex girlfriend. I have grown and blossomed emotionally and mentally. I have confidence in myself and my ability to think things through and come to a good decision/choice. I have a new girlfriend who loves me and cares about me. We mirror eachother.
My work life/buisness has sky rocketed. No more chasing my tail. The day before yesterday me and my business partner placed a bid on a house to renovate and sell. I have all dewalt tools now and a reliable van. Just bought myself a luxury watch ( or 3) as a sobriety gift to myself.
I love life now and it is going by so fast.
wish it would slow down sometimes. I remember thinking when I first began this journey’ can’t wait for 5 years to be over and all this will be over’
Happily it doesn’t work like that.
Sobriety truly is a fantastic way of life.
It’s seems un achievable in the beginning but just keep chipping away and build yourselves a life that works for you. Doesn’t have to be flash. Just as long as you are at peace inside.
take care people.
